    following are few of them:

    One A/R Invoice was created from one or more sales order. TDS was a real problem for the end user, as they had to work on Excel for keeping

    track and deduction. With SAP Business One it has reduced this work.

    The discount structure was configured in Tax Engine and defaulted to BusinessPartner. So now the end user will not have to select from various discountcombination. Once user selects the Business Partner, the discount is displayed inmarketing document along with the tax and Discount.

    Saint Gobain was facing a major problem with the A/R invoice. The user wasgetting added twice or sometimes even thrice in the old system. Now with SAPBusiness One it can be done only once since same A/R invoice cannot be addedtwice in SAP Business One.

    The number of pieces of finished goods packed in carton was configured, with itsweight printed in documents level.

    Mailing services, i.e., sending documents and reports was now mailed directly tothe business partner as well as non SAP Business One users.

    Reports were generated as per the need of the user with Queries feature in thesystem.

    Control over updating sales order and purchase order. SAP Business One allows making a field Read Only for a specific user. Stock taking alerts can be sent to a specific user. Check tracking feature was also configured using user defined table.
